LOL! Well...I don't know how else to explain it other than it's when I look at something and I think of my Grandmother. Not sure what examples to give. Hummmm...
Jen, so is that lke doilies and afgans? Those are things that make me think of two of my gramas, a hardware store would make me think of another hahah, she owned one, Giggle, ( hope I made someone smile with that one!)
Yes! Those are good examples. Doilies, lots of lace, pink. Although I personally like the color pink, I wouldn't put it in my house. My hubby's grandma's bathroom is a huge bathroom in all pink. The tub, sink, and toilet are even pink. Egads!

I love hearts that are that color, My bath rooms, one is the Ocean ( sandy walls and ocean 3/4 way up with blue sky, I have a net I am putting up this weekend and lots of shells. we even have a ship's light for the light! The other is ... nothing yet any ideas? It usually has a nice black speckled window so we are planning to remodle it!

Although I do like Salt Shakers! just not nick nacks haha! f) Do you decorate for Christmas? Yes totally! We do at least one tree, have wreaths and even decorate the kids doors! We have ornaments from our childhood through each year of our marriage.. but they don't all go on the tree, we found we have to pick and choose now days hehe. e) anything else you think may be helpful?
